TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WFLA) – A certified nursing assistant was arrested Thursday after law enforcement officials grabbed the neck of a disabled adult and shoved it from the bed onto the floor.
Attorney General James Usmier’s Medicaid fraud control unit and the Nassau County Sheriff’s Office have said that Logan Morrison is a former employee of Dayspring Senior Living LLC (“Dayspring”) in Hilliard.

On April 15, 2024, investigators said they saw Morrison grabbing the neck of a disabled adult and pushing him out of bed.
Morrison’s employment file showed that he had received two hours of preservice orientation training on resident rights, the Attorney General’s Office said. He was fired from his employment after the facility internally investigated the alleged incident.
“This violence against vulnerable Floridians is unacceptable,” Attorney General James Usmier said. “My office has zero tolerance for elder abuse. Reliable, my office will throw books at this criminal and continue to protect those who cannot protect themselves.”
He was arrested and charged with abusing an adult with disabilities.
